Default CAI SCT DTC PO174 TOO LEAN2

I am running a C&L Cold Air Intake using a SCT tuner. I am running a low end torque tune from BAMACHIP. I can't believe the outstanding performance. But, I am getting a "check engine" light. I have reinstalled the tune, checked the CAI for loose fit or possible leaks etc., but everything looks good. I have talked to Doug at BAMACHIP and he has double checked the tune more than once to make sure it is good as well. After driving around for a couple of hours the check engine light comes on.
Has anyone had this experience? I am running out of ideas. The car runs very well, and I love the performance, but I can't seem to get rid of the "check engine" light. I ran the DTC and the code I get is PO171 and PO174 too lean2.
Any help that you can give me would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,
Casper

u can try resetting the computer, disconnect the battery for a few
minutes or go into the handheld device and try to make the setting
richer by 1 point (maybe). To hit it on the head, you need a meter or
dyno it.

Just tying to help :-)

Thank you Denny. I appreciate your input. I reloaded the tune again. I am having some trouble getting a hold of Doug with BamaChip. If my engine light comes on again, I will definitely give your suggestion a try.
Thanks again,
Casper
